SamuExpo is an interesting biennial event, which  this year is held in Pordenone, from 06 to 08 February, and attracts an increasing number of visitors each year.  The exhibition is divided into four thematic areas:

• SamuMetal: dedicated to metal working tools and technologies
• SamuPlast: for plastic technologies, machines and materials
• Subtech: related to components and mechanics
• Digitaldays: covering digital company culture, innovation and Industry 4.0.

After the debut of eTensil in 2018, Fiam’s electrical solutions are enriched with new models that offer new operating features and automation, depending on the operational layout.

The new manual electric screwdrivers are versatile and intelligent, making them suitable for integration into organisations with smart production. They feature the following new functions.

There is a growing use of smaller cobots on assembly lines as they are ideal for:

• automating repetitive operations and making the best use of the operators’ skills
• carrying out most tightening jobs automatically
• being quickly reprogrammed and used for different applications, which makes them the perfect choice even for low-volume runs or for variable workflows with quick operational setup changes.
